Video Timing Controller 5.01a PG016 October 16, 2012 www.xilinx.com 105 105 105 106 106 106 4 SECTION I: SUMMARY IP Facts Overview Product Specification Designing with the Core Video Timing Controller 5.01a PG016 October 16, 2012 www.xilinx.com 5 IP Facts Introduction LogiCORE IP Facts Table The Xilinx LogiCORE™ IP Video Timing Controller core is a general purpose video timing generator and detector. The input side of this core automatically detects horizontal and vertical synchronization pulses, polarity, blanking timing and active video pixels. While on the output, it generates the horizontal and vertical blanking and synchronization pulses used with a standard video system including support for programmable pulse polarity. The core is commonly used with the Video in to AXI4-Stream core to detect the format and timing of incoming video data or with the AXI4-Stream to Video out core to generate outgoing video timing for downstream sinks such as a video monitor. The core is highly programmable through a comprehensive register set allowing control of various timing generation parameters. This programmability is coupled with a comprehensive set of interrupt bits which provides easy integration into a processor system for in-system control of the block in real-time. The Video Timing Controller is provided with an optional AXI4-Lite compliant interface.

The Video Timing Controller serves the function of both detecting and generating these timing signals. Figure 1-1 shows a typical video frame including timing signals. IMPORTANT: All signals are shown with active high polarity. X-Ref Target - Figure 1-1 Figure 1-1: Example Video Frame and Timing Signals A video frame can be completely described in terms of timing by only a few definitions. A video frame comprises active video and blanking periods. The vertical and horizontal Video Timing Controller 5.01a PG016 October 16, 2012 www.xilinx.com 8 Feature Summary synchronization signals describe the video frame timing, which includes active and blanking data. In addition, the frame synchronization signals can be used to synchronize video data from one component to another within a video system. There are additional signals that can also be used to control the video system, such as a signal to differentiate valid chroma samples. Video systems may utilize different combinations of blank, synchronization or active signals with various polarities to synchronize processing and control video data. The Video Timing Controller simplifies working with video timing signals by providing a highly programmable and flexible core that allows detection and generation of the various timing signals within a video system. Feature Summary The Video Timing Controller core supports the AXI4-Lite interface and a constant-mode interface. The AXI4-Lite interface allows the core to be easily incorporated into an EDK project. The Constant interface utilizes core parameters configurable by the Graphical User Interface (GUI) to setup the core for fixed-mode operation. These configurable options allow the Video Timing Controller core to be easily integrated with AXI4 based processor systems, with non-AXI4-compliant processors systems with some additional logic, and in systems without a processor. The Video Timing Controller core supports detecting video frame sizes up to 8192 clocks by 8192 lines (including horizontal and vertical blanking). The Video Timing Controller core automatically detects the timing involved with horizontal/vertical blanks and syncs. The timing of the active_video and the active_chroma signals are also detected. This allows the user to easily determine the video frame size via the core register (AXI4-Lite) interface. The minimum set of signals used for detection is either vertical blank, horizontal blank and active video or vertical sync, horizontal sync and active video. The polarities of each input signal is also detected and reported via the register interface to allow easy use of each signal once the polarity is known. The core also supports generating and regenerating (matching the detected input) video frame sizes up to 8192 clocks by 8192 lines (including blanking time). The output can be the same format or a different format as the detected input. This allows detecting one format and generating a different format. The output can also be synchronized to the detected input and has separate signal polarity settings as well. This allows regenerating the input with different signal polarities or with slight timing adjustments (such as delayed or shorted active video). The Video Timing Controller core supports up to 16 frame sync output signals. These are toggled high for one clock cycle during each frame. These frame syncs allow triggering timing critical hardware processes at different times during a frame. Video Timing Controller 5.01a PG016 October 16, 2012 www.xilinx.com 9 Applications Applications • Video Surveillance • Industrial Imaging • Video Conferencing • Machine Vision • Video Systems requiring timing detection or timing generation Unsupported Features The Video Timing Controller core does not automatically detect and regenerate timing signals with the same polarity at the output as on the input. Software that can read the polarity of the input signals and set the polarity at the output is needed to configure the Video Timing Controller in this manner.

Refer to the Video IP: AXI Feature Adoption section of the AXI Reference Guide (UG761) [Ref 1] for additional information. Performance The following sections detail the performance characteristics of the Video Timing Controller core. Maximum Frequencies This section contains typical clock frequencies for the target devices. The maximum achievable clock frequency can vary. The maximum achievable clock frequency and all resource counts can be affected by other tool options, additional logic in the FPGA device, using a different version of Xilinx tools and other factors. Refer to in Table 2-1 through Table 2-6 for device-specific information. • Virtex-7, Virtex-6, Kintex-7, Zynq (XC7Z030, XC7Z045): 225MHz • Artix-7, Spartan-6, Zynq (XC7Z010, XC7Z020): 150MHz Latency The Video Timing Controller core does not read or generate data, and therefore, does not have a specific data latency. The Video Timing Controller core monitors and generates control signals. The output control signals can be configured to be the same as the input with no latency, or the output signals can be configured to incur a multi-clock or multi-line delay. Video Timing Controller 5.01a PG016 October 16, 2012 www.xilinx.com 11 Product Specification Resource Utilization Throughput The Video Timing Controller core does not read or generate data, and does not have a specific throughput. Resource Utilization For an accurate measure of the usage of primitives, slices, and CLBs for a particular instance, check the Display Core Viewer after Generation check box in the CORE Generator interface. Resource Utilization using ISE Design Environment The information presented in Table 2-1 through Table 2-6 is a guide to the resource utilization and maximum clock frequency of the Video Timing Controller core for all input/ output width combinations for Virtex-7, Kintex-7, Artix-7, Zynq-7000, Virtex-6, and Spartan-6 FPGA families.

Frame Synchronization Interface fsync_out fsync_in Output [Frame Syncs 1:0] FRAME SYNCHRONIZATION OUTPUT Each Frame Synchronization bit toggles for only one clock cycle during each frame. The number of bits is configured with the Frame Syncs GUI parameter. Each bit is independently configured for horizontal and vertical clock cycle position with the Frame Sync 0-15 Config registers). Input 1 FRAME SYNCHRONIZATION INPUT This is a one clock cycle pulse (active high) input. The video timing generator will be synchronized to the input if used. Notes: 1. All ports are little-endian. The clk, clken and resetn signals are shared between the core and the Video Timing interfaces. The AXI4-Lite control interface has its own set of clock, clock enable and reset pins: S_AXI_ACLK, S_AXI_ACLKEN and S_AXI_ARESETn. The clk Pin The Video Timing interfaces must be synchronous to the core clock signal clk. All Video Timing interface input signals are sampled on the rising edge of clk. All Video Timing output signal changes occur after the rising edge of clk. The AXI4-Lite interface is unaffected by the clk signal. The clken Pin The clken pin is an active-high, synchronous clock-enable input pertaining to Video Timing interfaces. Setting clken low (de-asserted) halts the operation of the core despite rising edges on the clk pin. Internal states are maintained, and output signal levels are held until clken is asserted again. When clken is de-asserted, core inputs are not sampled, except resetn, which supersedes clken. The AXI4-Lite interface is unaffected by the clken signal. The resetn Pin The resetn pin is an active-low, synchronous reset input pertaining to only Video Timing interfaces. resetn supersedes clken, and when set to 0, the core resets at the next rising Video Timing Controller 5.01a PG016 October 16, 2012 www.xilinx.com 27 Product Specification Core Interfaces and Register Space edge of clk even if clken is de-asserted. The resetn signal must be synchronous to the clk and must be held low for a minimum of 32 clock cycles of the slowest clock. The AXI4-Lite interface is unaffected by the resetn signal. AXI4-Lite Interface The AXI4-Lite interface creates a core that can be easily added to an EDK Project as a hardware peripheral. This section describes the I/O signals associated with the Video Timing Controller AXI4-Lite interface.

Video Timing Controller 5.01a PG016 October 16, 2012 www.xilinx.com 43 Product Specification Chapter 3 Designing with the Core Basic Architecture The Video Timing Controller core contains three modules: the video timing detector, the video timing generator and the interrupt controller. See Figure 3-1. Either the detector or the generator module can be disabled at instantiation with the GUI to save resources. X-Ref Target - Figure 3-1 Figure 3-1: Video Timing Controller 5.01a PG016 October 16, 2012 Video Timing Controller Block Diagram www.xilinx.com 44 Control Signals and Timing Control Signals and Timing The Video Timing Controller Inputs and Outputs are discussed and shown with timing diagrams in the following sections. The blanking and active period definitions were discussed in Chapter 1, Overview. In addition to these definitions, the period from the start of blanking (or end of active video) to the start of synchronization is called the front porch. The period from the end of synchronization to the end of blanking (or start of active video) is called the back porch. The total horizontal period (including blanking and active video) can also be defined, and similarly the total vertical period. Figure 3-2 shows the start of the horizontal front porch (Hblank Start), synchronization (Hsync Start), back porch (Hsync End) and active video (SAV). It also shows the start of the vertical front porch (Vblank Start), synchronization (Vsync Start), back porch (Vsync End) and active video (SAV). The total number of horizontal clock cycles is HSIZE and the total number of lines is the VSIZE. These definitions of video frame periods are used for both Video Timing Detection and Video Timing Generation. X-Ref Target - Figure 3-2 Figure 3-2: Example Video Frame and Timing Signals with Front and Back Porch Video Timing Controller 5.01a PG016 October 16, 2012 www.xilinx.com 45 Control Signals and Timing Video Timing Detection The Video Timing Controller has six optional inputs for detecting the timing of the input video signal: vertical blank, vertical synchronization, horizontal blank, horizontal synchronization, active video and active chroma. The minimum set of inputs required to detect is either vertical blank, horizontal blank and active video or vertical sync, horizontal sync and active video. To enable detection, the Enable Detection GUI parameter must be set, and the control register bit 1 must also be set. The GUI parameter allows saving FPGA resources. The Control Register allows run-time flexibility. Other GUI parameters can be set to selectively disable detection of one or more input video timing signals. The detected polarity of each input signal is shown by bits 0-5 of the Detection Polarity Register (address offset 0x2C). High denotes active high polarity, and low denotes active low polarity. Bits 8 and 9 of the Detection Encoding Register shows the number of lines skipped between each active chroma line. Bit 8 High denotes that every other line is skipped (4:2:0), and low denotes that no lines are skipped (4:4:4 or 4:2:2). Bit 9 High denotes that every other pixel is skipped, and low denotes that no pixels are skipped. If any input (vblank_in, vsync_in, hblank_in, hsync_in, active_video_in, active_chroma_in) is not driven or is not connected, then detection for that input must be disabled. To disable detection for an input, deselect the appropriate option in the GUI ("Vertical Blank Detection", "Vertical Sync Detection", etc.). Video Timing Generation The Video Timing Controller can generate up to six output video signals: vertical blank, vertical synchronization, horizontal blank, horizontal synchronization, active video and active chroma. To enable generation of these signals, the Enable Generation GUI parameter must be set, and the control register bit 0 or bit 2 must also be set. Other GUI parameters can be set to selectively disable generation of one or more video timing signals. The polarity of each output signal can be set by bits 0-5 of the Generator Polarity Register (Address Offset 0x006C). High denotes active high polarity, and low denotes active low polarity. Bits 8 and 9 of the Control Register also sets the number of lines skipped between each active chroma line. Bit 8 High denotes that every other line is skipped (4:2:0), and low denotes that no lines are skipped (4:4:4 or 4:2:2). Bit 9 High denotes that every other pixel is skipped, and low denotes that no pixels are skipped. The Video Timing Controller has bits in the Control Register called Source Selects to select the internal detection registers or the external input generation registers. These bits allow the detected timing (if enabled) to control the generated outputs or allow the host processor to override each value independently via the generation registers at address offset 0x0060 - 0x0084, as described in Table 2-13. Table 3-1 through Table 3-6 show example settings of the input control busses and the resultant video timing output signals.

Notice that in Table 3-1 the Control Register bit 2 is set to enable generation, that all source selects are set to 1 to select the Generation Registers and that the polarity bits are all set to 1 to configure the outputs for active high polarity.

Synchronization of the output to the input allows the developer to override each individual timing signal with different settings such as signal polarity or start time. For example, the active video signal could be regenerated shifted one cycle earlier or later. This provides a flexible method for regenerating video timing output signals with different settings while remaining synchronized to the input timing. The Video Timing Controller also has a GUI parameter, called Auto Generation Mode, to control the behavior of the generated outputs based on the detected inputs. When the Auto Generation Mode parameter is set, the generated video timing outputs will change based on the detected inputs. If this parameter is not set, then the video timing outputs will be generated based on only the first detected input format. (If the detector loses lock, the generated outputs will continue to be generated.) To change output timing while Auto Generation Mode is set, timing detection must first be disabled by clearing bit 1 in the Control Register and then re-enabling, if any of the Source Select bits are low. Frame Syncs The Video Timing Controller has a frame synchronization output bus. Each bit can be configured to toggle high for any one clock cycle during each video frame. Each bit is independently configured for horizontal and vertical clock cycle position with the Frame Sync Configuration Registers (address offsets 0x0100 - 0x013c). Interrupts The Video Timing Controller has an active high interrupt output port named "irq". This output is set high when an interrupt occurs and set low when the interrupt event has been cleared. The Video Timing Controller also contains three 32-bit registers for configuring and reporting status of interrupts: the Interrupt Status/Clear, the Interrupt Enable and the Interrupt Clear Registers. A logical AND is performed on the Interrupt Enable Register and the Interrupt Status Register to set the interrupt output high. The Interrupt Clear Register is used to clear the Interrupt Status Register. Writing a '1' to a bit in the Interrupt Status Video Timing Controller 5.01a PG016 October 16, 2012 www.xilinx.com 57 Use Model Register clears the corresponding interrupt when set. Writing a '1' to a bit that is cleared, will have no effect. Use Model This section illustrates a likely usage scenario for the Xilinx Video Timing Controller core.

Both the timing and the signal polarity of the timing signals are captured and easily read by the host processor. Video Timing Controller 5.01a PG016 October 16, 2012 www.xilinx.com 58 Clocking Video timing signals are generated to control a AXI4-Stream to Video-Out module and an external display. The timing of these output signals is controlled by the host processor. The Video Timing Controller can be configured in real-time to replicate the source video format or to slightly change the format on the output, for example, in cases where the input signals are positive polarity yet the display requires negative polarity synchronization signals. The Video Timing Controller can also be reconfigured in real-time to output a completely different format from the input source. Two Frame Sync outputs are generated to control Video Processor 1 and Video Processor 2. These outputs could be used to control when Video Processor 2 starts processing relative to when Video Processor 1 starts processing. These Frame Syncs can be reconfigured in real-time as well. The Video Timing Controller is connected to a Host Processor in this example. The AXI4-Lite Interface allows for easy connection between status/control registers and the host processor. In addition, the Video Timing Controller interrupt output can also be used to synchronize the software with hardware events. If the video system requires that no in-complete video frames are sent from the Video-In To AXI4-Stream core, then the Video Timing Controller must be configured to drive the axis_enable input with bit 8 of the INTC_IF bus. This bus must be enabled with the "Include INTC Interface". Clocking The Video Timing Controller core has one clock (clk) that is used to clock the entire core. This includes the AXI4-Lite interface and the core logic. Resets The Video Timing Controller core has one reset (resetn) that is used for the entire core. The reset is active-Low. Protocol Description The Video Timing Controller core register interface is compliant with the AXI4-Lite interface.

For a complete list of Vivado User and Methodology Guides, see the Vivado Design Suite 2012.3 User Guides web page. Migrating to the AXI4-Lite Interface The Video Timing Controller v4.00.a changed from the PLB processor interface to the EDK pCore AXI4-Lite interface. As a result, all of the PLB-related connections have been replaced with an AXI4-Lite interface. For more information, see the AXI Reference Guide at: www.xilinx.com/support/documentation/ip_documentation/ ug761_axi_reference_guide.pdf Parameter Changes in the XCO File The Video Timing Controller v5.00.a added the following parameters in the .xco file: • GEN_ACHROMA_POLARITY • GEN_AVIDEO_POLARITY • GEN_CPARITY • GEN_F0_VBLANK_HEND • GEN_F0_VBLANK_HSTART • GEN_F0_VFRAME_SIZE • GEN_F0_VSYNC_HEND • GEN_F0_VSYNC_HSTART • GEN_F0_VSYNC_VEND • GEN_F0_VSYNC_VSTART Video Timing Controller 5.01a PG016 October 16, 2012 www.xilinx.com 96 Port Changes • GEN_HACTIVE_SIZE • GEN_HBLANK_POLARITY • GEN_HFRAME_SIZE • GEN_HSYNC_END • GEN_HSYNC_POLARITY • GEN_HSYNC_START • GEN_VACTIVE_SIZE • GEN_VBLANK_POLARITY • GEN_VIDEO_FORMAT • GEN_VSYNC_POLARITY • HAS_AXI4_LITE • HAS_INTC_IF • SYNC_EN • Video_Mode Port Changes The Video Timing Controller v5.00.a removed all GPP interface ports. The Video Timing Controller v4.00.a.0 added the ability to operate on video frame sizes up to 8192 x 8192. Previous versions supported 4096 x 4096 maximum. If the maximum sizes of 8192 are selected, some GPP ports will be 13 bits wide where on previous versions of the core, these ports were 12 bits. The Video Timing Controller v4.00.a also added the ability to detect and generate vertical signals with a horizontal offset. In order to report the horizontal start cycle of these vertical signals, the Video Timing Controller v4.00.a added the following new ports: • gen_v0blank_hstart • gen_v0blank_hend • gen_v0sync_hstart • gen_v0sync_hend • det_v0blank_hstart • det_v0blank_hend • det_v0sync_hstart Video Timing Controller 5.01a PG016 October 16, 2012 www.xilinx.com 97 Functionality Changes • det_v0sync_hend Functionality Changes The Video Timing Controller v5.00.a AXI4-Lite register definitions changed from the previous version, simplifying the address map. The Video Timing Controller v5.00.a also added parameters for configuring the core in constant mode, thus the core can be initialized to generate timing after reset without a processor or software. The Video Timing Controller v3.0 added the ability to operate on video frame sizes up to 8192 x 8192. Previous versions supported 4096 x 4096 maximum. The Video Timing Controller v3.0 also added the ability to detect and generate vertical signals with a horizontal delay offset. Special Considerations when Migrating to AXI The Video Timing Controller v3.0 added the support for the AXI4-Lite interface with this version. When using the Video Timing Controller v3.0, note that the pcore name changed from "timebase" to "axi_vtc". All software driver functions, data structures and filenames also changed from a "xtimebase" prefix to "xvtc" prefix. Video Timing Controller 5.01a PG016 October 16, 2012 www.xilinx.com 98 Appendix C Debugging When debugging, check the following: • Verify that the clock pin, clk, is connected to the video clock source and is running. • Verify that reset pin, resetn, is active low and has asserted and deasserted properly. • Can the Version register be read properly? See Table 2-13 for register definitions. • Check the interrupt status register lock status (if using detector) or for specific errors. Check Table 2-14 for definitions of each bit. • Verify that the vblank_in, hblank_in and active_video_in inputs are properly driven or that the vsync_in, hsync_in and active_video_in inputs are properly driven. These are the minimum required port connections for the input to perform detection. • Verify that bits 0 and 1 of the Control register are set to "1". Bit 0 is the generator enable Bringing up the AXI4-Lite Interface Table C-1 describes how to troubleshoot the AXI4-Lite interface. Table C-1: Troubleshooting the AXI4-Lite Interface Symptom Solution Readback from the Version Register via the AXI4-Lite interface times out, or a core instance without an AXI4-Lite interface seems non-responsive. Are the S_AXI_ACLK and clk pins connected? In EDK, verify that the S_AXI_ACLK and clk pin connections in the system.mhs file. The VERSION_REGISTER readout issue may be indicative of the core not receiving the AXI4-Lite interface. Readback from the Version Register via the AXI4-Lite interface times out, or a core instance without an AXI4-Lite interface seems non-responsive. Is the core enabled? Is s_axi_aclken connected to vcc? In EDK, verify that signal clken is connected in the system.mhs to either net_vcc or to a designated clock enable signal. Video Timing Controller 5.01a PG016 October 16, 2012 www.xilinx.com 99 Bringing up the AXI4-Lite Interface Table C-1: Troubleshooting the AXI4-Lite Interface (Cont’d) Symptom Solution Readback from the Version Register via the AXI4-Lite interface times out, or a core instance without an AXI4-Lite interface seems non-responsive. Is the core in reset? S_AXI_ARESETn and resetn should be connected to vcc for the core not to be in reset. In EDK, verify that the S_AXI_ARESETn and resetn signals are connected in the system.mhs to either net_vcc or to a designated reset signal. Readback value for the VERSION_REGISTER is different from expected default values The core and/or the driver in a legacy EDK/SDK project has not been updated. Ensure that old core versions, implementation files, and implementation caches have been cleared. Video Timing Controller 5.01a PG016 October 16, 2012 www.xilinx.com 100 Appendix D Application Software Development Device Drivers The Xilinx Video Timing Controller pCore includes a software driver written in the C Language that the user can use to control the Xilinx Video Timing Controller devices. A high-level API is provided and can be used without detailed knowledge of the Xilinx Video Timing Controller devices. Application developers are encouraged to use this API to access the device features. A low-level API is also provided in case applications prefer to access the devices directly through the system registers described in the previous section. Table D-1 lists the files that are included with the Xilinx Video Timing Controller pCore driver and their description. Table D-1: Device Driver Source Files File Name Description xvtc.h Contains all prototypes of high-level API to access all of the features of the Xilinx Video Timing Controller devices. xvtc.c Contains the implementation of high-level API to access all of the features of the Xilinx Video Timing Controller devices except interrupts. xvtc_intr.c Contains the implementation of high-level API to access interrupt feature of the Xilinx Video Timing Controller devices. xvtc_sinit.c Contains static initialization methods for the Xilinx Video Timing Controller device driver. xvtc_g.c Contains a template for a configuration table of Xilinx Video Timing Controller devices. This file is used by the high-level API and will be automatically generated to match the Video Timing Controller device configurations by Xilinx EDK/SDK tools when the software project is built. xvtc_hw.h Contains low-level API (that is, register offset/bit definition and register-level driver API) that can be used to access the Xilinx Video Timing Controller devices. example.c An example that demonstrates how to control the Xilinx Video Timing Controller devices using the high-level API. Video Timing Controller 5.01a PG016 October 16, 2012 www.xilinx.com 101 pCore API Functions pCore API Functions This section describes the functions included in the pcore Driver files generated for the Video Timing Controller pCore. The software API is provide to allow easy access to the registers of the pCore as defined in Table 2-12 in the Register Space section. To utilize the API functions provided, the following header files must be included in the user's C code: • #include "xparameters.h" • #include "xvtc.h" The hardware settings of your system, including the base address of your Video Timing Controller core are defined in the xparameters.h file. The xvtc.h file provides the API access to all of the features of the Object Segmentation device driver.
